Master-at-Arms Third Class Billal Kheir, a Joint Base Pearl Harbor-Hickam Harbor Patrol Unit (JBPHH HPU) coxswain, stands beside one of JBPHH HPU's patrol boats. The JBPHH HPU has set a new benchmark for readiness, earning perfect scores during 18 consecutive months of rigorous tactical assessments. Responsible for securing 6,400 acres of vital waterways in and around Pearl Harbor, the unit proved its elite capabilities by executing emergency drills, casualty control scenarios and real-world threats such as a small boat attack, improvised explosive devices, and weapons malfunctions. This exceptional track record underscores the HPU’s daily vigilance and its ability to rapidly neutralize threats in any scenario. (U.S. Navy photo by Kyler Hood)
